Usage

Follow these steps to use KyWheelTabController in your project:

Step 1: Import KyWheelTabController

In your view controller file, import the KyWheelTabController module:

import KyWheelTabController

Step 2: Set Up KyWheelTabController

Initialize and configure KyWheelTabController in your view controller’s viewDidLoad method:

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    
    // Create an instance of KyWheelTabController
    let wheelTabController = KyWheelTabController()
    
    // Customize the appearance and behavior of the wheel tab controller
    
    // Set up and configure the view controllers for each tab
    
    // Add the wheel tab controller's view to your view hierarchy
}

Step 3: Customize Appearance

You can customize the appearance and behavior of KyWheelTabController using the following properties and methods:

3.1: tabSize

The tabSize property allows you to set the size of each tab in the wheel.

wheelTabController.tabSize = CGSize(width: 60, height: 60)

3.2: tabBarColor

The tabBarColor property allows you to set the background color of the tab bar.

wheelTabController.tabBarColor = UIColor(red: 0.2, green: 0.4, blue: 0.6, alpha: 1.0)

Step 4: Set Up View Controllers

Add your desired view controllers to KyWheelTabController as tabs:

// Create your view controllers
let viewController1 = UIViewController()
let viewController2 = UIViewController()

// Set up the tabs
wheelTabController.add(viewController1, title: "Tab 1", icon: UIImage(named: "tab1"))
wheelTabController.add(viewController2, title: "Tab 2", icon: UIImage(named: "tab2"))

Step 5: Add to View Hierarchy

Add the view of KyWheelTabController to your view hierarchy:

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    
    // ...
    
    // Add the wheel tab controller's view to your view hierarchy
    addChild(wheelTabController)
    view.addSubview(wheelTabController.view)
    wheelTabController.didMove(toParent: self)
}

Step 6: Layout Constraints

Configure the layout constraints of KyWheelTabController’s view to fit your desired layout:

wheelTabController.view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
    
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
    wheelTabController.view.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor),
    wheelTabController.view.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.trailingAnchor),
    wheelTabController.view.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor),
    wheelTabController.view.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.bottomAnchor)
])

Step 7: Run Your App
